In the "About Firefox" window, the "Restart to Update" button is always shown, but does not work.

If i press it it will restart Firefox, but will not have updated it. I always have to manually upgrade Firefox, but even then About Firefox screen says Restart to Update

I had this same problem and discovered today that the reason is because I do not often log on as Administrator and it appears Firefox won't update from my non-administrator ID. (I have a separate Administrator account set up on my computer so I don't inadvertently do something terrible.)
When I logged on as Administrator and went to Firefox>Help>About Firefox (for me, 16.0.0.2), it had already started updating itself to 17.whatever. Restart to Update appeared again, and when I clicked it, Firefox updated itself to 18.0.1 and now shows a Check for Updates button, which returns that Firefox is up-to-date.
I hope this helps some of you.

How may one cancel the download of an update that was started by having actuated the "Check for Updates" button in the "About Firefox" window, please?

How may one cancel the download of an update that was started by having actuated the "Check for Updates" button in the "About Firefox" window, please? If possible please cover all platforms, Mac, Windows, Linux, although the first mentioned is what currently applies to my circumstances.
Thank you.

Such a download is usually saved in an updates or updated folder in the Firefox program/application folder.
You can delete this folder to cancel the download.
If files already have been downloaded then remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.

You don't in the condition it's in. You will either have to get the phone replaced by Apple or pay a 3rd party to repair it.
there seriously should be more than two ways to solve this other wise apple is useless and we will never buy another apple product.
Seriously? It's physically broken!

I just upgraded to the New OS on my Mac Book Pro and now my trackpad does not zoom in or out. I looked at system settings on trackpad and it is set, but does not work How do I get it started?

This is really unfortunate. I'm sorry that nothing works. I was going to mention holding down the power button and doing a force shutdown but you already did that. You might need to take it into the Apple store. I don't know if booting into safe mode would help. You would have to turn off the machine again, hit the start button and hold down the shift key after you hear the tone, but normally you would let go of the shift key when you see the apple logo and spining wheel. Maybe by holding down the shift key after you here the tone will cause the screen to come back on? The other option is to start up from the 'install disk' if your machine came with one. You would insert the disk, then shut down the computer, and hold down the C key right after hitting the start button.
Here's the link for the safeboot

You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you. But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.

I have a manual that contains headings and index entries that contain less than and greater than characters, < and >. The Publish to Responsive HTML5 function escapes these correctly in the main body of the text but does not work correctly in either the Contents or the Index of the generated HTML. In the Contents the words are completely missing and in the index entries the '\' characters that are required in the markers remain in the entry but the leading less than symbol and the first character of the word is deleted; hence what should appear as <dataseries> appears as \ataseries\>. I believe this is a FMv12 bug. Has anyone else experienced this? Is the FM team aware and working on a fix. Any suggestions for a workaround?

The Index issue is more complicated since in order to get the < and > into the index requires the entry itself to be escaped. So, in order to index '<x2settings>' you have to key '\<x2settings\>'. Looking at the generated index entry in the .js file we see '<key name=\"\\2settings\\>\">. This is a bit of a mess and produces an index entry of '\2settings\>'. This ought to be '<key name=\"&lt;x2settings&gt;\" >'. I have tested this fix and it works - but the worst of it is that the first character of the index entry has been stripped out. Consequently I cannot fix this with a few global changes - and I have a lot of index entries of this type. I'm looking forward to a response to this since I cannot publish this document in its current state.

Before removing iPhoto (latest update crashed the app), I accidently removed it from my purchased Apps from the App Store. I accept iPhoto when I search for it, but does not put it back in my list. How do I get this back so that I can reinstall iPhoto?

Thank you.

I found the answer just after posted this. Thanks to a user named CloudWalker. Solution is to go in AppStore, View Account under "Store" Menu and unhide any purchases.

My phone doesn't ring when someone is calling, but the sound works otherwise, like the alarm etc. I have tried to fix it in settings but still not working. anyone else have this problem?

Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue!

Has your problem been solved by the updates??
Have a similar problem. This MacBook opened all MS Office programs in Dec2012 but no longer does in Feb2013. Went to Microsoft/mac/downloads but none of the three updates would run citing a problem "version of software needed to run this update was not found on this volume".
MacBook: 7.1, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz
Microsoft Office 2011: version 14.2.3
Mountain Lion: 10.8.2 (12C60)

My passcode is working to unlock the screen but does not work with restriction passcode. Should they be different?

My passcode is working to unlock the screen but does not work with restriction passcode.
Tried it several times but it did not work, though i can use the phone and all features even after 13 failed attempts.
Should restriction passcode be different from what i set?

There is no default restriction password. If you didn't set it someone else may have. If you can't find it then you may have to follow the steps here:
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or ...
Do you have a backup which might not have this restriction passcode? If so restore to that backup?

My iphone 4s is factory unlocked purchased in the U.S., but does not work in carriers of Brazil

I bought my iphone 4s unlocked factory from U.S., but does not work in carriers of Brazil.
Displays the following message:
Only compatible SIM cards from a supported carrier may be used to active iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported Carrier's store to receive a replacement SIM card.
What can I do?
Thanks.

Return your phone for a refund, because you did NOT purchase an officially unlocked iPhone 4S. There are no officially unlocked iPhone 4S's being sold, in the US, anywhere but Apple's online store. If you didn't get your phone through Apple's online store in the US, it is NOT officially unlocked.

I don't know what they call it, but my plantronics voyager pro, and my wifes plantronics voyager pro+ will not let you hear music through the headset. My Blueant T1 does support it and plays the music through the deadset.

TS4009 I upgraded my Icloud storage yesterday by 10GB, but one day later realize I did not need to do so. The apple advice is to cancel within 15 days for a refund, but does not tell you how to do so. Anyone know how to contact apple for this purpose?

You would have to contact Apple in order to do that. Just use this link to ask Apple for a refund: http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
